Join us for the NEW ShopRite® Nutmeg State Games
 
Mites Jamboree! 

• 20-minute games, 1-minute warm-up, Running clock
• The buzzer sounds every 90 seconds for line changes
• The ice will be cut every two hours
• Game officials and clock operators provided for all games
• 4 players & 1 Goal Keeper on Ice

• Intermediate nets will be used
• A goaltender in full goalie gear is required to guard the nets and will have full goalie privileges
• When the goalie freezes the puck or after a goal, the team that shot/scored will retreat to mid-ice; the advancing team will receive the puck, and play will resume; the clock will run

• When a penalty is called, the offending player will be removed from play and must immediately skate to his/her bench
• Play will continue without substitution for the offending player until the next buzzer when a new 4-player unit takes the ice
• Coaches will use the infraction for instructional purposes, informing the offending player regarding the infraction and how not to repeat it
• The player will be eligible to return for his/her next shift
• In the rare instance that two penalties occur from one team during a shift, a substitute player may go on the ice for the second player returning to the bench; play will never be less than 3-on-4 (or 3-on-3)
• If a player takes repeated penalties or attempts to injure another player, he/she may be removed from the tournament. The on-ice official will have the final judgment.

• No scores or individual stats will be kept in this tournament,
• All participants will receive a ShopRite® Nutmeg State Games Tee Shirt 
• Medals will not be awarded 

• Line changes – if a team finds itself in a line change situation where not all four players are coming off the ice to be replaced by another 4-player unit, the player(s) left on the ice must come back to the bench to “tag up” before continuing play
